Exhaust System: Service Precautions

WARNING!
- Do not re-use any fasteners that are worn or deformed in normal use.
- Some fasteners are designed to be used only once, and are unreliable and may fail if used a second time. This includes, but is not limited to, nuts, bolts, washers, circlips and cotter pins. Always follow the recommendations - replace these fasteners with new parts where indicated, and any other time it is deemed necessary by inspection.

NOTES:
- After servicing the exhaust system, make sure that the system is not under stress and that there is sufficient clearance from the bodywork. If necessary, loosen the double clamps and align the muffler and exhaust pipe so that there is sufficient clearance to the bodywork. The retaining rings should also be evenly loaded.
- Always replace self-locking nuts.
